Abstract

Technology is increasingly developing in the world of education, encouraging teachers to continue to adapt and improve the quality of digital-based learning. The ease of information obtained through technology also has a negative impact, namely the spread of false information due to lack of digital literacy. With the spread of false information, teachers have challenges in building digital literacy skills to students in the field of education. This research aims to develop a digital literacy website as a strategy to improve teacher professionalism in the digital era. This research uses the Borg and Gall development model. The respondents of this study were 100 junior high school teachers in DKI Jakarta. Data collection techniques were carried out through distributing questionnaires, observation and in-depth interviews. The results of this study show that 85% of teachers feel less confident in assessing the validity of digital information. In addition, 78% of teachers need guidance to utilise digital media effectively in the learning process. This research has implications for improving the professionalism of junior secondary school teachers in conducting digital literacy-based learning processes. With a digital literacy website, teachers can be more confident in validating digital information in supporting the learning process in the classroom.
